hand-me-down snowblower - Thank you Michael

Martin's brother replaced his snow blower and we were the lucky recipients of the old one. It has come in handy since we have gotten close to 6 foot of snow so far this winter.

 Martin used the snow blower to clear a path around the house in order to access windows. We are hoping that the temperatures will moderate a bit (we have had lows below 0 and highs in the teens) to allow him to install the windows.

The siding on the back of the barn is started

Martin installed to of the refurbished (rescued from the house) windows in the back of the barn. He then was able to start putting the board and batten on.


We are running low on boards for the barn siding. Martin has enough boards to finish the east side of the barn. Once we have less snow, he will be able to get more lumber in to finish the back and the interior of the mud room.
